22 THE SCREECH OWL Wick burning up. Ruth any-“Weir.” Tinker without money, especially Sylvia money. Tinker being awarded a perfect at- tendance medal. Mary Tobin without a smile. George Murphy without a yodel. Paul Wilson as a character actor. Ruth Weir without Puzzy or Ralph. Ellen Taival saying darn. Snubby not saying “gosh,” “darn,” “the brute.” Ralph Lent playing a bass viol. Ruth Heinonen without a piano. Stanley Wojtkiewicz writing poetry. Saarela without his ark. Joe Arcisz hurrying. Helander: Does this train stop at Tenth Street? Stranger: Yes, watch me and get off one station before I do. Helander: Thanks. Grondahl : Waiter, have the orches- tra play “Carmen” while I eat this beefsteak. Waiter: Yes, sir, but why? Grondahl: I want to hear the To- reador Song ; I feel like a bull fighter. Savello: So you collect antiques. Skike: Yes, I even have a very rare typewriter which was owned by Na- poleon. Savello: But they didn’t have type- writers in Napoleon’s day. Skike : I know it ; that’s what makes it so rare. Marsden — Did your uncle remem- ber you in his will ? Bishop : Yes — he left me out. Teacher: What tense is “I am beau- tiful?” Ignachuck: Past. Judge: Who was driving when you struck the other car? Swett: None of us; we were all in the back seat. Willis: How much for the hat? Clerk: Fifteen dollars. Willis: Where are the holes? Clerk: What holes? Willis: The holes for the ears of the jackass who would pay that much for it. Puzzy: Do you know why that dog has such long legs? Joe: No, why? Puzzy: So that he can reach the ground. Boss: Before I hire you, you will have to pass an intelligence test. Rita: Intelligence test? Why, the advertisement said you wanted a stenographer. Mrs. C. : Brad, did you take a bath ? Brad: No — is there one missing? Saarela : I think I’ve got a flat tire. Dot B. : That makes us even. Elin : This lipstick is a novelty. Stan: Well the novelty will soon wear off.

The Wise Old Owl Would Like to Know : 1. What makes Joe Schnair so bash- ful. 2. If Ellen Taival declines dates as she does verbs. 3. Whether Herbie is going to cash in on his reputation and go pachy- derm. 4. When Loraine will give the local boys a break. 5. How Marsden can breathe freely at such a high altitude. 6. Who Marion Ledgard’s new boy friend is. 7. How many volumes Saarela’s book, “School Days,” will fill. 8. What girl is pursued by three Lotharios. 9. Brad Case’s latest “heart.” Wouldn’t it be strange if : Reno were Heigh-ho instead of Aho. Dick was a Lancer instead of an Archer. Rita were Bari-finger instead of Bari- teau. Marguerite were Blueberry instead of Carbary. Anna were Weigh-pound instead of Fayton. Tom were Doorley instead of Gately. Ruth were Stonewall instead of Grun- wald. Edwin were Lowlander instead of Helander. Mike were Ignathrow instead of Igna- chuck. Tauno were Naturalgas instead of Kangas. Kalervo were Forkanniver instead of Kansanniva. Loraine could Koch. Ralph were Borrowed instead of Lent. Aune were Sinko instead of Salo. Helen were Swimkiewicz instead of Sienkiewicz. Willie were Tollbridge instead of Stockbridge. Elin were Duckson instead of Swan- son. Millard were Perspiration instead of Swett. Joe were Suspendis instead of Tre- bendis. Howie were Spinning instead of Weaving. Agnes were Omnibus instead of Glebus. We can’t imagine: Brad without a “Case.” Vivian “Wolfe” camped on our door- step. Dot “Burn” anything except “Ham.” Stan “De-Half-Witt” instead of De- Witt. Salmela without a fishpole. Oiva ever taking a “Hintsa.”
